Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

18 oz box yellow cake mix ((or similar size) just the mix)
1 egg
1/2 cup butter (melted)
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
7 oz marshmallow creme
2 cups milk chocolate chips
1 cup mini marshmallows

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9x13" cake pan with parchment paper for easy cutting later on, or just lightly spray with cooking spray and then set aside.
  • In a large bowl combine the cake mix, egg, butter and graham cracker crumbs. Use a sturdy wooden spoon to mix until combined. The mixture will be slightly crumbly, but stick together when squeezed. Reserve 2 cups and pour the remaining graham cracker mixture into the cake pan and press down into an even layer.
  • Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the crust in an even layer and press lightly into the crust.
  • Drop the marshmallow creme by the tablespoonful onto the chocolate chips and then wet the back of a tableware spoon with water and spread into an even layer.
  • Sprinkle with the mini marshmallows, and then top with the remaining graham cracker mixture.
  • Bake for 20 to 22 minutes, (optional - turn on the top broiler for just 1 to 2 minutes at the end to lightly brown the marshmallows). Let cool completely before cutting into bars. Enjoy!

You can skip the campfire and still serve up s'mores flavors to a crowd with this rich, chewy version of the famous St. Louis cake.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 2h5m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
One 15.25-ounce box devil's food cake mix
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
One 8-ounce package cream cheese, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
3 cups confectioners' sugar
One 10-ounce bag standard marshmallows (not mini)
4 graham cracker sheets

Steps:

  • For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 13-by-9-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Combine the cake mix, vanilla and eggs in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the butter and mix just until combined. Spread the mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
  • For the filling: Beat the cream cheese in a clean mixer bowl with the paddle on medium speed until light and smooth, scraping the sides occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the vanilla and eggs and beat until smooth. Add the butter and beat until smooth. Add the confectioners' sugar and beat on low speed to incorporate, and then beat on medium until light and smooth, about 1 minute.
  • Arrange the marshmallows in rows in the chocolate batter, flat-ends up. Pour the cream cheese mixture over the marshmallows, using an offset spatula to evenly distribute. Coarsely crumble the graham crackers over the top.
  • Bake until the edges are puffed and golden brown and the center is just set, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool before cutting into squares.

Tips:

  • To achieve the perfect gooey texture, make sure your marshmallows are fresh and soft. If they're too old or stale, they won't melt properly and the bars won't be as gooey.
  • Don't overbake the bars. Overbaking will cause them to dry out and lose their gooey texture. The bars are done when the edges are golden brown and the center is still slightly soft.
  • Let the bars cool completely before cutting and serving. This will help them set and hold their shape better.
  • For a richer flavor, use a high-quality chocolate bar for the graham cracker crust and the ganache topping.
  • If you don't have a kitchen torch, you can toast the marshmallows under the broiler on low heat. Just watch them closely so they don't burn.

Conclusion:

These gooey s'mores cake bars are the ultimate dessert for any chocolate lover. They're easy to make and always a hit at parties and potlucks. With their rich chocolate flavor, gooey marshmallow filling, and crispy graham cracker crust, these bars are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
